Breach of Privacy
Hi, My personal information is breached regularly from my mobile and from my laptop too by a anonymous person even after using security . Can we do legally do something against that anonymous person who is attacking me personally means getting my reputation down ? I am loosing my ground professionally in the market because of this. I am regularly getting messages like "Someone else might have accessed Microsoft account sp*****¡hotmail.com. Recover at https://account.live.com" I am very fearful about my professional and private life because of breaching of personal information on regular basis. Can you suggest me something through which I can improve my status ? Because of all this, I am loosing my finances too. Thanks & Regards, Sunny Singh

Sir, you are requested to report the FIR in IT dept of police, like in Delhi they have cyber law crime branch etc, yes you can take legal action, police will hunt down IP address and so on, once you identify the person you can follow suit to cover your compensation as well as criminal case against such person or company.
Also in between focus spending some money on upgrading the security of your system unfortunately in India we take cyber security as a just excuse not worry about.
You could consider filing a case of FIR with the Cyber cell of police of your city/state citing that your cyber safety has been breached. CIDs (Criminal Investigation Departments) of various cities opened up Cyber Crime Cells in different cities. The Information Technology Act of India states clearly that when a cybercrime has been committed, it has a global jurisdiction. and hence a complaint can be filed at any cyber cell.
You could follow these steps while registering an FIR-
Step 1 -One may need to provide name, mailing address & telephone number along with an application letter addressing the head of a cyber crime investigation cell when filing a complaint.
Step 2-One must provide certain documents in order to register a complaint. List of documents varies with the type of cyber crime.
In case of hacking the following information should be provided:
1) Server Logs
2) A copy of the defaced web page in soft copy as well as hard copy format, if victim’s website is defaced If data are compromised on the victim’s server or computer or any other network equipment, soft copy of original data and soft copy of compromised data.
3) Access control mechanism details i.e.- Who had the access to the computer or email of the victim?
4) List of suspects if the victim is having any suspicion on anyone.
5) All relevant information leading to the answers to following questions.
- What is compromised?
- Who might have compromised the system?
- When was the system compromised?
- Why might have been the system compromised)
- Where is the impact of the attack-identifying the target system from the network?
- How many systems have been compromised by the attack)
